TEAM
Brin Finnigan, Owner

Brin Finnigan has called the North Fork Valley home for the past 16 years. Thirteen years ago, he founded North Fork Carpentry with a vision to combine craftsmanship, sustainability, and community values. With a degree in Environmental Studies, Brin brings a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach to his work—balancing strong design instincts with hands-on execution.
Over the years, Brin has built a reputation for his keen eye for design, his dedication to quality, and his ability to assemble skilled, cohesive teams. He believes strongly in keeping carpentry work in-house to maintain high standards and create strong working relationships with both clients and subcontractors.
Nine years ago, Brin expanded his operation with the addition of Driftwood Mill, a sawmill that allows him to control the quality and sourcing of the materials used in his projects. With a background that includes work as a painter, metalworker, drywall installer, and carpenter, Brin has worn many hats in the trades—but wood has always been his preferred medium.
When he’s not on the job site, Brin enjoys spending time with his family, boating, and woodworking. He’s combined those passions by building a wooden whitewater dory, which he takes on trips through the Grand Canyon. Back on land, his work remains deeply rooted in the local community—North Fork Carpentry recently moved into a historic building in downtown Hotchkiss. Stop by and say hello!
